Ah, but SKOS Concepts are not formally disjoint with non-conceptual things.
Put another way, by saying that something is a SKOS Concept one is not actually
saying that it is a "conceptual thing". If a SKOS Concept is informally
understood to be a conceptual thing, that is fine, but the SKOS data model does
not make a formal distinction.
